New York mayor Bill de Blasio chose Vermont senator-turned-progressive-presidential-candidate Bernie Sanders (pictured) to swear him in to his second term last weekend, solidifying a "bromance" de Blasio hopes will translate into Sanders naming him his socialist successor in national politics.

But the ceremony was so cold, Bernie Sanders was forced to upgrade his traditionally unkempt look, and he did it with a decidedly un-99%-er $700 coat by the decidedly upmarket Burton outfitters.

Bernie, supposedly a man of the people, wore a $690 Burton down jacket pulled up around his ears as he administered de Blasio's oath of office in the subzero weather, even though de Blasio and his family were dressed (also to the nines) in tailored wool and faux fur.

2) I propose a limitation be put on how many sqares [sic] of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting. Now, I don’t want to rob any law-abiding American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required. -- Singer/songwriter Sheryl Crow in the Huffington Post (her new nickname is "one square Crow")

4) Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go. -- Barack Obama

5) Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs. -- Nancy Pelosi

6) Now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’ The answer is yes, that’s what I’m telling you. -- Joe Biden

7) Isn't it racist to call it Black Friday? -- Joy Behar on The View

8) I took a poo in the woods hunched over like an animal. It was awesome. -- Drew Barrymore

9) The number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S. -- Joe Biden

10) Seniors love getting junk mail. It’s sometimes their only way of communicating or feeling like they’re part of the real world. -- Harry Reid
